    Laoch Cholmcille
    Tá guth brodamhail Thír Chonaill go h-aluinn indiu
    Ag musgailt mac-alla go h-árd as go tuigh
    'Gus Cléirí 'na gcóistí go Gartan a' triall
    Ó bhailtibh na Conndaethe go fras as go fial
    Tá'n pobal go cráibtheach ag urnaighe sa gleann
    'S gan fasgadh an sgathlainn fhéin ag cumhdach a gcinn
    Na Sagairt maithe coírighthe as an t-Aifreann ghá rádh
    Ar altóir an sgéimheamhail le ró-bheagan Sgáth

    Tá Clann Conaill go céimeamhail as go tréanmhar annseo
